   6. Sewage Storage Tanks (SST):
      • Unique identifier;
      • Horizontal position (ACT SG Easting and Northing);
      • Vertical position (AHD cover level);
      • Well size (DN);
      • Well depth to invert (m);
      • Material.
   7. Sewage Overflow Structures (SOS):
      • Unique identifier;
      • Horizontal position (ACT SG Easting and Northing);
      • Vertical position (AHD cover level);
      • Material.
   8. Sewer Dead Ends (SDE):
      • Unique identifier;
      • Horizontal position (ACT SG Easting and Northing).
   9. Straight Sewer Mains:
      • Horizontal length*;
      • Invert level at upstream end *, (AHD);
      • Invert level at downstream end *, (AHD);
      • Size (DN);
      • Material;

      • Bedding type;
      • Number of scour and trench stops;
      • If not parallel to kerb or block boundary, additional information for horizontally curved sewer mains:
        • Radius of centre line of horizontal curvature (m);
        • Horizontal position - start of curve, Easting and Northing, (ACT SG);
        • Horizontal position - end of curve, Easting and Northing (ACT SG);
      • Additional information for vertically curved sewer mains:
        • Rate of change of grade (metres per metre);
        • Starting grade percentage;
        • End grade percentage;
        • Intermediate invert levels at a maximum of 5.0 metre spacing.

   Note: * at IP for design, at inside face of structure for WAE.

   10. Property Connections:

       • Material;
       • BVR (if used);
   
   

   Where details under items (a) through (j) apply to all structures on the drawing, these can be covered under drawing notes.

   
   
3. Longitudinal profiles showing chainages, surface and invert levels, and details of adjacent structures likely to be of concern to ACTEW as the operating authority for all mains larger than DN300, or deeper than 5.0 metres, or with less than standard cover, or passing closer than the standard clearances to other services;
4. Full construction details and specifications for all non-standard or special works (e.g. special structures, drops, non-standard maintenance holes, pump stations, etc.) not fully described by this document or the Basic Specification (Reference 5.1);
5. Where non-standard alignments are proposed which encroach onto the normal service reservations of other utilities, evidence is required of agreement from the affected utilities to the use of the alignments.
